Suggestion for next debate: the moderator should have the ability (a) to cut off Trump's mike (b) drop a plexiglass Cone of Silence on him if he still won't shut up. — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
So the parts of the economy over which Trump should have had some influence have not gone at all in the direction he promised. Not morally comparable to his attacks on truth, justice, and the American way, but also indicative of a man who has no business running the country 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

But it may be worth pointing out that Trump's signature policy and biggest claim — that he brought manufacturing back with his trade wars — is false. Manufacturing trade deficit (nonag/nonoil, which is a good proxy) has gone up 2/ https://t.co/3oKJvZuiL0 — PolitiTweet.org

Economic policy was really a secondary issue, if that, last night. Fwiw, viewers apparently saw even that as more or less a draw, while dunking on Trump over everything else 1/ https://t.co/X9QOLlM4yA — PolitiTweet.org

Remember: coming into this, Biden supporters said Trump is a lying ignorant bully, who supports white supremacists. He confirmed their story. Trump supporters said Biden is senile and suffering from dementia. He clearly isn't. Everything else is peripheral. — PolitiTweet.org

Paul Krugman thinks that Donald Trump talking about himself in the third person is very off-putting — PolitiTweet.org

Highly unlikely. I am, however, convinced that Trump is a massive lizard-like Slitheen in a skin suit. I mean, they couldn't even get the skin color quite right https://t.co/UHFLziZnHE — PolitiTweet.org

As I've been saying, the really scary part of the Times expose on Trump is his debt, but the really telling thing is confirmation that his whole image as an effective businessman is a con 1/ https://t.co/JfcH3rp2qj — PolitiTweet.org

Urp. I see, by the way, that some people are saying why aren't they talking to MMTers. But you don't need heterodoxy! Perfectly mainstream economists — Larry Summers, Olivier Blanchard — will be just as aghast as I am — PolitiTweet.org

The US, with earlier warning, a younger population, and lower density, should have had lower covid mortality than Europe. In fact, our excess mortality was substantially higher https://t.co/H7g8DUgo7T — PolitiTweet.org

Why is the Rust Belt looking like Biden country? Partly because Trump's promise of a manufacturing revival never happened. Take out the temporary slump in 2015-16 due to a crash in fracking, and we were going nowhere even pre-pandemic 2/ https://t.co/FO3pYrAqoF — PolitiTweet.org

High odds now that Biden will win — but until more polling in FL, a good chance that his winning margin will come from mail-in ballots not counted on Election Night, setting the stage for real ugliness 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

Yes. The proposed subsidy enhancement is, as Joe Biden would say, a big [some]thing deal, and would help a lot of people. — PolitiTweet.org

Unless Biden wins in a landslide, a constitutional crisis is baked in by the combination of Trump’s desperation and his party’s contempt for democracy. That’s the real bottom line 4/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
But it’s Trump’s huge unpayable debt that’s the real killer. It’s not just a question of who he owes the money to. It’s the incentives: if he loses office, he faces personal ruin. And he won’t even give lip service to the idea of losing peacefully 3/ — PolitiTweet.org

The revelation that Trump has always been a lousy businessman, that he has never shown the ability to do anything well besides self-promotion, is a bigger deal. And we should ask why so many Americans were taken in by such an obvious fraud 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
Paul Krugman @paulkrugman
Lots of people making these points, but let me join the chorus. The revelation that Trump paid almost no taxes, while easy to explain, is the least important part of the scandal. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org
